CNGB1 Polyclonal Antibody, Cy3 Conjugated

Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) cation channels are heteromeric complexes made up of principal alpha and modulatory beta subunits (1,2) . The alpha subunits consist of CNG1-3 and form functional cation channels by themselves (1,2) . The beta subunits consist of CNG4-6 and, unlike the alpha subunits, do not form functional channels, but rather modify the properties of channels (1,2) . CNG channels are essential components of olfactory and visual transduction (1,2) . In olfactory neurons, CNG2, CNG4.3 and CNG5 form Ca2+ permeable channels, which open and depolarize the cell in response to cAMP (1-3) . In rod photoreceptors, CNG1 and CNG4.1 combine to form Ca ion permeable channels, which give rise to a current in response to cGMP (1-3) . CNG3 and CNG6 are expressed in cone receptors and may combine to form a native cGMP-activated channel (2,3) . CNG channels have been implicated in other areas (4-6) . CNG1 is also expressed in medium-sized and small-sized arteries, suggesting a role for CNG in the regulation of arterial blood pressure and of blood supply to different regions (4) . CNG1, CNG4.1 and CNG4.2 have been detected in the rat pineal gland (5) . CNG2, CNG4.3 and CNG5 are present in GT1 cell lines and may play a role in the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (6) .
